IMPORTANT NOTICE
•
Contact the place of purchase or a bicycle dealer for information on
installation and adjustment of the products which are not found in
the user's manual. A dealer's manual for professional and experienced
bicycle mechanics is available on our website (http://si.shimano.com).
•
Do not disassemble or alter this product.
For safety, be sure to read this user's manual thoroughly
before use, and follow them for correct use.
Important Safety Information
Guidelines that require replacement, contact the place of purchase or a
bicycle dealer.
WARNING
•
It is important to completely understand the operation of your
bicycle's brake system. Improper use of your bicycle's brake system
may result in a loss of control or a fall, which could lead to severe
injury. Because each bicycle may handle differently, be sure to learn
the proper braking technique (including brake lever pressure and
bicycle control characteristics) and operation of your bicycle. This can
be done by consulting your professional bicycle dealer and the
bicycle's owners manual, and by practicing your riding and braking
technique.
•
If the front brake is applied too strongly, the wheel may lock and the
bicycle may fall forward, and serious injury may result.
•
Always make sure that the front and rear brakes are working correctly
before you ride the bicycle.
•
The required braking distance will be longer during wet weather.
Reduce your speed and apply the brakes early and gently.
•
If the road surface is wet, the tires will skid more easily. If the tires
skid, you may fall off the bicycle. To avoid this, reduce your speed and
apply the brakes early and gently.
•
Check the brake cable for rust, fraying, and cracks, and contact the
place of purchase or a bicycle dealer if any such problems are found. It
this is not done, the brakes may not work correctly.
<Disc brake>
•
Please use extra caution to keep your fi ngers away
from the rotating disc brake rotor. The rotor is
sharp enough to infl ict severe injury to your fi ngers
if caught within the openings of moving rotor.
•
The calipers and rotor will become hot when the brakes are operated,
so do not touch them while riding or immediately after dismounting
from the bicycle, otherwise you may get burned.
•
Be careful not to allow any oil or grease to get onto the rotor and
brake pads, otherwise the brakes may not work correctly.
•
If any oil or grease does get on the pads, you should consult a dealer
or an agency. There is the danger that the brakes may not work
correctly.
•
If noise occurs during brake operation, the pads
may have been worn down to the usable limit.
Check that the brake system temperature has been
cooled down suffi ciently, and then check that the
thickness of each pad is 0.5 mm or more. Or, consult
a dealer or an agency.
2 mm 0.5 mm
•
If the rotor is cracked or deformed, immediately stop using the brakes
and consult a dealer or an agency.
•
If the rotor becomes worn down to a thickness of 1.5 mm or less, or if
the aluminum surface appears, immediately stop using the brakes and
consult a dealer or an agency. The rotor may break, and you may fall
off the bicycle.
•
After reading the user's manual carefully, keep it in a safe place for
later reference.
CAUTION
•
Disc brakes have a burn-in period, and the braking force will gradually
increase as the burn-in period progresses. Make sure that you are
aware of any such increases in braking force when using the brakes
during the burn-in period. The same thing will happen when the
brake pads or rotor are replaced.
Note
•
The components are designed to be fully waterproofed to withstand
wet weather riding conditions; however, do not deliberately place
them into water.
•
Do not clean the bicycle in a high-pressure car wash. If water gets into
any of the components, operating problems or rusting may result.
•
Handle the components carefully, and avoid subjecting them to any
strong shocks.
•
Be careful not to let water get into the terminals.
•
Do not use thinners or similar substances to clean the products. Such
substances may damage the surfaces.
•
Contact the place of purchase for updates of the component software.
The most up-to-date information is available on the Shimano website.
•
Also read the manuals for the brake and other equipment to be
connected.
•
Products are not guaranteed against natural wear and deterioration
from normal use and aging.
•
For maximum performance we highly recommend Shimano lubricants
and maintenance products.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is

Regular inspections before riding the bicycle
Before riding the bicycle, check the following items. If any problems are
found with the following items, contact the place of purchase or a
bicycle dealer.
•
Do the front and rear brakes work correctly?
•
Does the brake lever have suffi cient freeplay?
•
Does the brake cable have any rust, fraying, or cracks?
•
Do the brake pads have a thickness of 0.5 mm or more?
•
Do the gears be shifted by shifting switch operation?
•
Are the shifting lever attached to the handlebars snugly?
•
Do any abnormal noises occur during operation?
